You have to make sure this game is compatible with Vista. If it's an older XP game and the manufacturer does not specifically state Vista, contact them and make sure the game will work with that OS. If it's a new game you purchased without realising take it back and ask them if they have a vista version of the game. Strange as most recent games would tell you if they were vista compatible on the box.
It's tough to help when you don't bother to list your system specs. Does your computer at least meet the minimum hardware requirements? Try testing it with this: Can You Run It?
